Assuming that in the last option 'whichever melody you create' is underlined, the correct answer is that one, the last sentence. Because this is the only sentence in which 'to' is used as a preposition, in 2 and 3 there are no prepositions, and in 1 'to' is a part of an infinitive phrase.

What idea does the description of the prioress in the prologue to Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales convey? She was a devout nun for whom religion and God were of prime importance. She was concerned for the general well-being of her fellow pilgrims. She aspired to courtly life and behaved like a court lady rather than a nun. She was not a person devoted to fashion and courtly manners.

Answers

The best description of the prioress in the prologue to Chaucer's Canterbury Tales is that she aspired to courtly life and behaved like a court lady rather than a nun.

For Plato users the answer is ''she aspired to courtly life and behaved like a court lady rather than a nun."
